Hair transplant is a surgery that becomes more and more popular, especially in Poland. Hair transplant Poland restores your hair by moving hair follicles from a donor area to a recipient area. It is a very common solution for treating baldness and restoring eyelashes, eyebrows or hair in other areas of your body.

You should consider hair transplant abroad, as it may be even 50% cheaper.

How is hair transplant in Poland done?

Hair transplant (also called hair implantation or hair restoration) is an aesthetic procedure. The hair is moved from the donor site to the recipient site to restore your hair. The donor site is simply the body part where you actually do have hair, and the recipient site is a bald area which you wish to have hair on.

Hair transplant procedure is not complicated. The length of the procedure depends on how many grafts you need, however on average, it takes about 2-3 hours.

There are two methods for hair transplant in Poland: FUSS or FUE. The method used for your hair transplant are carefully chosen by the doctor in each case. FUSS method – Follicular Unit Strip Surgery, during which the surgeon removes a 15-20cm strip of your skin from the back of your head and divides it into grafts (one graft involves no more than 4 hair). FUE method – Follicular Unit Extraction, during this procedure your hair follicles are removed one by one, so it involves the collection of individual units, leaving microscopic scars in the donor area. However, they can’t be seen even if looking closely. Both methods leave you with no visible scars and they are covered with your hair anyway.

As the first step, your surgeon prepares your donor area, by cleaning and numbing it. In Poland, hair implantation procedure is performed under local anesthesia so that you don’t feel any pain.

When the grafts are prepared, as the second step, your specialist also cleans and numbs the recipient area. Then he makes tiny holes and puts grafts in there, every single one separately.

The pace at which the hair grow after hair transplant depends on each case individually, because of your individual predispositions. Some of the patients notice significant hair growth even after 3 – 5 months hair implantation. Nevertheless, in general, usually the most effective, the fastest and easily observed hair growth occurs around 6 – 7 months after the hair transplant procedure. Lastly, the full hair growth can be seen between 12-18 months after the surgery.
